Wedding betrayal might wake press up that they're being used by Biden
[NYPOST] President Biden’s granddaughter Naomi’s White House wedding was "a private affair," and off-limits to the press.
Well, except for Vogue.
The White House press pool wasn’t allowed into The People’s House, but the fashion magazine got the full spread, the private pics, the kisses, the cake cutting, and all the pomp and circumstance.
The media is furious, but they shouldn’t be surprised. This is a president who rarely does a presser, who prefers TikTok and Instagram influencers to "60 Minutes." Of course, they pulled a bait-and-switch to only get the pictures they want published.
Why didn’t the press realize they were going to get rolled? Because they thought they’d earned the right to be there.
They’ve earned the access by spending countless hours in the press briefing room, waiting for Biden officials to come out to the podium and spin their propagandist yarns.
They’ve earned it by attending countless photo ops of the president getting shots in his fake White House set, designed to better facilitate media receiving and regurgitating his tone-deaf messages.
They’ve earned it by dismissing anything remotely critical of President Biden, his mental state, or his compromised son.
And now, when a sunny day on the lawn, reporting on the joy and excess of presidential family privilege was in the offing, they were cast aside, lied to, and didn’t even get advance copies of the shiny, exclusive coverage in Vogue.
So will the media learn its lesson?
